I declare, I got to have my lovin' spoonful
Well, I'm just got to have my lovin'
Some good Maxwell's House, you understand?
Well, I'm just got to have my lovin', I found her
Just like it says on the can, I used to have a girl
Some said to Memphis and some said to Leland
He laid his Bible down for his lovin'
If I can get me just a spoonful of Maxwell's House
I declare, I got to have my lovin' spoonful
My baby packed her suitcase and she went away
Good mornin', baby, how you do this mornin'?
Well, please, ma'am, just a lovin' spoon, just a lovin' spoonful
I've got to go to Memphis, bring her back to Leland
Well, please, ma'am, just a lovin' spoon, just a lovin' spoonful
Good mornin', baby, how you do this mornin'?
Ain't Maxwell House all right?
I wanna see my baby 'bout a lovin' spoonful, my lovin' spoonful
But I found her, I wanted her to cook me
Do me much good as two or three cups this other coffee
Well, the preacher in the pulpit, jumpin' up and down
I couldn't let her stay for my lovin', my lovin' spoonful
Cookin' a good Maxwell House, she moved away
